Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me
I think they're okay
If they don't give me proper credit, I just walk away
They can beg and they can plead
But they can't see the light
Cause the boy with the cold hard cash is always Mister Right
Cause we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Yes, we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Some boys romance, some boys slow dance
That's all right with me
If they can't raise my interest, then I have to let them be
Some boys try and some boys lie
But I don't let them play
Only boys that save their pennies makes my rainy day
Yes, we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Yes, we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Living in a material world
Living in a material world
Living in a material world
Living in a material world
Boys may come and boys may go
That's all right, you see
Experience has made me rich
And now they're after me
Cause we're living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Yes, we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we're living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Yes, we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
